I jolted awake when gravity began to make me lean off the chair. Luckily I caught what was happening before I fell. That's when noticing that the RV was moving from the vibrating floor and the scenery outside passing by. We weren't on the highway anymore but the view was amazing.

   There was a cliff and vegetation filled it until stopping at the edge of the bottom where miles of water spread.

   "Nice view, isn't it?" I looked over at the couch to see Zeb, cleaning his weapon.

   "Yeah, that's a lot of water and a long way down too," I randomly said, "Why is there no railing?"

   Zeb shrugged then asked, "Why, afraid we may tumble down the cliff." He bellowed with laugher as I rolled my eyes then stared back out the window.

   "What is that?" I asked, pointing at the water. Zeb raised an eyebrow and looked out the window.

   "Kid, I don't see anything," he replied and I held back another eye roll.

   "I meant the water, is it a lake or a pond?" I asked. Zeb gave me the strangest look ever like I was supposed to know this.

   "What?" I asked, confused.

   "You don't know what the ocean is?" He asked. I scrunched my nose in confusion. Ocean? I've never heard that term before.

   "I'm guessing by the look on your face that it's a no," he replied. Then continued, "Well, that's the ocean. Don't drink the water or you may regret it."

   "Why?" I asked, curiously. He grinned, "You can go figure it out yourself, be my guest." Zeb chuckled as I raised an eyebrow and shook my head. Only Zeb.

"Where is everybody?" I asked. Zeb stopped cleaning his weapon and looked up at me.

"Hera and Sabine are talking in the cockpit and Kanan's in the back," he answered, "Don't bother him."

"He's still upset?" I asked, "Why does he hate that city so much?"

"Kid, if I knew, I wouldn't tell you," Zeb said, "but honestly, I have no clue. I've never been to that city before but heard stories of it."

   "Could you tell me one?" I asked. He seemed to think about it while staring at me.

   A minute later, he sighed, "Sure, why not." I listened with curiosity and sometimes interrupted when there wasn't something that made sense. He explained it and moved on. I liked listening to Zeb stories. He makes them seem so exciting and sit on the edge waiting to see what happens next.

   It reminded me of when my dad would act out some of my old story books before going to bed. It was a sad memory but nonetheless a good one.

When Zeb finished, I said, "That was a great story." He grinned ear to ear then reached over, ruffling my hair.

"Hey," I said annoyed, slapping his hand away. The man bellowed with laughter and I rolled my eyes before looking out to see we were in the city.

"We're here," I said, looking out the window. Zeb turned his gaze as well to see the tall buildings, people and cars pass by.

The Ghost turned into a gas station and parked. Hera and Sabine came out of the cockpit.

"I'm going to gas the Ghost up and then it's mission time," Hera told us. I was still upset that I wasn't going to be able to help but at the same time didn't want to mess anything up. I saw her eyes shift to the bedroom door then to us.

"Zeb and kids, I want you three to fill up the gas tank instead, if you don't mind," she said. The three of us went outside but before I stepped out, I saw Hera walk over to the bedroom door. I soon followed the other two down the steps and over to a machine.

Zeb began to fill the RV with gas and Sabine went inside the store.

"Do you think Kanan is going to be alright on the mission?" I asked. I'll admit, I was kind of worried that something will go wrong and everything will be messed up.

"I'm sure he'll be fine," Zeb reassured me. I nodded but didn't rely on it to the point of believing it. Sabine came back out of the store.

   "It's all paid for," she told Zeb.

    "Good, we don't need bucket heads to be chasing us before the mission starts," he replied. I turned my attention to the busy city. It seemed like it was busier than Garel City. I examined the people, cars, and alleyways.

   Then my eyes suddenly stopped at a near by alleyway. There was an ominous figure with a cloak. A shadow loomed over their face but, there eyes stood out and the color of them bothered me. Piercing yellow, staring in our direction but more at me.

   I began to walk that way and didn't take my eyes off of the figure.

   "Ezra!" I heard someone yell, bringing me out of my trance enough to see cars speeding by. I jumped back from almost walking out onto the street.

    Someone turned me around to face them. Kanan.

   "Kid, what were you thinking?" He asked sternly, shaking me a little.

   "I-I saw..." I looked over my shoulder to see the alleyway empty.

   "That is no excuse why you almost walked onto a busy highway!" Hera yelled angrily at me. I flinched a bit and looked down. Some people that were near even looked over before moving on.

   "Your life almost flashed before my eyes if you didn't stop at the last moment," Kanan said, then guided me back to the RV. I stopped and turned to glare at the man.

   "It's not your job to protect me. I am capable on watching myself," I retorted.

   "It is my job to protect people, including you whether you like it or not. If you are so capable on watching yourself then I won't stop you next time," he snapped. Kanan walked around me and back to the RV. I stood frozen in my spot. Hera looked at me then shook her head and walked in the same direction.

   I know what I saw but was it even real or just something in my mind? Was it really worth risking my life for? I looked to the alleyway to see it still empty then huffed and turned to walk back to the Ghost.
